Keyboard pushes my EditText out of the screen

Question

I have four EditText's in my Scrollview together with some checkbox and button:

• firstname
• lastname
• email

• password

  <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="match_parent" >
  
  <LinearLayout 
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:layout_gravity="center"
  android:orientation="vertical" >
  
  <EditText
      android:id="@+id/register_textedit_firstname"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginBottom="10dip"
      android:ellipsize="end"
      android:hint="@string/text_firstname"
      android:inputType="text"
      android:lines="1"
      android:maxLines="1"
      android:scrollHorizontally="true"
      android:singleLine="true" />
  
  <EditText
      android:id="@+id/register_textedit_lastname"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginBottom="10dip"
      android:ellipsize="end"
      android:hint="@string/text_lastname"
      android:inputType="text"
      android:lines="1"
      android:maxLines="1"
      android:scrollHorizontally="true"
      android:singleLine="true" />
  
  <EditText
      android:id="@+id/register_textedit_email"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginBottom="10dip"
      android:ellipsize="end"
      android:hint="@string/text_email"
      android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
      android:lines="1"
      android:maxLines="1"
      android:scrollHorizontally="true"
      android:singleLine="true" />
  
  <EditText
      android:id="@+id/register_textedit_password"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_marginBottom="10dip"
      android:ellipsize="end"
      android:hint="@string/text_password"
      android:inputType="textPassword"
      android:lines="1"
      android:maxLines="1"
      android:scrollHorizontally="true"
      android:singleLine="true" />
  
  <CheckBox
      android:id="@+id/register_checkbox_password"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:text="@string/checkbox_showpassword" />
  
  <LinearLayout
      style="?android:attr/buttonBarStyle"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:orientation="horizontal" >
  
      <Button
          android:id="@+id/register_button_register"
          style="?android:attr/buttonBarButtonStyle"
          android:layout_width="0dp"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:layout_weight="1"
          android:text="@string/button_register" />
  
      <Button
          android:id="@+id/register_button_cancel"
          style="?android:attr/buttonBarButtonStyle"
          android:layout_width="0dp"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:layout_weight="1"
          android:text="@string/button_cancel" />
      </LinearLayout>
  </LinearLayout>
  
  </ScrollView>
  

The manifest for this activity:

<activity
        android:name="de.hof.ime_dc.idia_move.activities.RegisterActivity"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_register"
        android:launchMode="singleTask" >
    </activity>

When i focus firstname or lastname the EditText for firstname gets pushed out of the top screen. I cant see it but i can type in it. when i focus email or password the firstname EditText comes back into the screen. I cant understand this behavoiur because when the firstname EditText gets pushed out of screen i cant scroll up to it (They are all in a ScrollView).

Dont get me wrong, i want my views to be pushed up when keyboard appears but i dont want them to get pushed out of the screen without being able to scroll to them.

EDIT

Just an idea:

Maybe it is because of my Action Title Bar? On every screen i have a action title bar with a navigation drawer. its seems that the edittext gets pushed under the title bar. Could that be?

EDIT 2

I noticed that it just happens on android device with android version 5.0. A bug?

Answer 1

The problem was, that i added this to my layouts:

android:layout_gravity="center"

That was the root of the evil.

Answer 2

Just add this in your Manifest .It works for me

android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustPan" 

I checked this .Please add this

 <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >

You can add "adjustResize" to your Manifest file to resolve such kind of bug -

<application ... >
    <activity
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" ... >
        ...
    </activity>
    ...
</application>

Hope this helps you :)
